I am interested in this set but not sure i have the space for the 55", as the TV will be placed in a corner shelf.

I posted this question in another thread but no answer so i'll put in here. Could someone with the 55LA6900 tell me the distance between the front edge of the stand to the screen? This will tell how far back the stand places the screen and whether or not I'll have enough width on my corner shelf.

surprisingly, it's better than what the above posted link says! I was actually expecting it to have terrible input lag. In game mode, it's perfect! Heck, I even tried it with ISF Expert mode with Trumotion set to Smooth and with Edge Sharpening, super resolution and LED Local Dimming on and I played Lost Planet 2 (3rd person shooter) and did not have any noticeable lag. I tried firing 1 shot at a time and it was very accurate with my button press.

I also tried NBA 2K13 with ISF Expert mode and tried doing crossovers and they were accurate. As a point of reference, I have the LG LS5700 (2012 LG model) and I tried using ISF Expert mode with it with 2K13 and it was suffered from input lag! My crossovers were delayed with my button press.

So overall, this is actually a decent gaming LED Tv based on my personal experience...of course, I can't speak for input lag about FPS or Fighting games coz I haven't tried yet.

But anyways I got the 47'' 6900 from sears for $954.64 and there is NO bleeding, NO flashlighting and NO dead pixels!!!

I did multiple tests with an all black background with a white object in the center in completely dark room, and nothing bad appeared even with local dimming set to OFF and the backlight turned up. YAY!!!

This TV is my first LG TV and it's definitely a winner.

Below is my awful story before I bought the LG la6900.

#1 Bought sony HX750, returned it because of clouding and thick border.

#2 Bought sony R450, returned it because of four flashlights in the corners and misleading XR120 label when it was a 60HZ tv.

#3 Bought panasonic E60, returned it because of multiple dead pixels.

#4 Bought another panasonic E60 from a different location, returned it because of 2 dead pixels and a dark spot on the screen.

#5 Bought sony W802, returned it because of very poor washed out color and 1 dead pixel, now best buy has banned me for 3 months.

#6 Went to sears and bought the LG la6900 and it's perfect!!!

The magic remote is nice but I would also like a normal LG remote, what model number remote should I look for on google?

I used Disneys WOW and then used some of their settings, mainly the 20pt white balance figures, to calibrate ISF1 on my 55" and wasn't pleased. Although the flesh tones were nice the blacks appeared to have some purple in them. So, I just did a reset. I'm going to re-calibrate with WOW and see how it looks.

Xoned,
You seem to be the first one with a 55' in this thread so I quoted my question from post #3. Would really appreciate if you could help out, I can not find the 55' in any store locally to measure myself. Thanks in advance!

5.25" past the front of the display and 4.5" behind the display. Check out page 15 of the manual for a visual reference.

Thank you so much!!! Exactly what I needed and if I got my trigonometry right, the 55" will just fit in my corner shelf. Should be ~1 inch of clearance on each sides with the stand at the edge of the shelf. Not ideal, but i will use the back bracket to secure it to wall behind. And shelf is high enough that the kids will know better by the age they are able to reach it....

Again, thank you very much for taking the time to measure these for me.

My voice control app still isn't popping up on the screen when I press the voice control button on the magic remote.

The firmware is up to date and I even reset the entire TV to default but when I press the voice button on the remote it still keeps repeating ''smart setup is required for this feature'' message. (even though I tried setting it up multiple times already).

I just purchased the 55la7400. Same tv but a slight step up. Read my initial impressions in that thread. Long story short the remote is awful and the os is subpar. I've had the same error multiple times in 3 days. I still haven't made a final decision but I'm pretty sure I'm sending this back to Amazon.
